Abstract

ABSTRACT: Marano F. & Palombo M.R., The straight – tusked elephants from Neumark Nord: the state of art. (IT ISSN 0394-3356, 2011) The German sites bearing straight-tusked elephant remains cover a period from 400 Ka (MIS 11) to the Eemian age (MIS 5e). The material excavated since 1980, in the lacustrine sediments of Neumark Nord (Eastern Germany), is one of the most outstanding samples of straight-tusked elephants in Europe. The Neumark-Nord material enhances our knowledge of the body size, sexual dimorphism, ontogenetic growth and morphological variability of Palaeoloxodon antiquus.
